Small Ladder

[cessnadriver]

Hello. FYI. I purchased a ladder similar to the one shown on Amazon. I think I bought mine from True Value hardware store. Paid $28 and since in was in the store-no shipping! I'm short, 5'2" and needed a longer ladder, this one I bought, is 38" tall, it weights 5 pounds, and I place it between the center seats with the legs against the back firewall. The top of the ladder sticks up 3" above the center seats. No problem with PAX in those seats. Good luck.

Can't find anything USA-made, but here's another one on Amazon that works well for the Skymaster when out airplane-camping or at fields with no services. This ladder fits snugly when centered and upright against the back wall of the cabin. I wedge it there with baggage and it's just tall enough for me (5'10") to reach & dip the fuel filler caps & rear engine oil cap (but NOT tall enough to see into them).

Responding to Learjetter provided link - If you are not particular about color - the woodgrained pattern version is on sale. That's what I bought. Just open original link and you'll see the color option. Twenty bucks cheaper at $69.99

I too like to visually verify the blue gas. I just ordered this telescoping stepladder:

Hopefully it works well and stows easily. I will report back when I receive it.

Besides Oshkosh and Sun 'n Fun, where do you go airplane camping? I'm not too far south of you, I'd be interested in this!

We have ideas for Cheyenne’s Frontier Days, Gaston’s or Arkan-STOL in Arkansas, and maybe Red Lodge during the Mountain Man Rendezvous.

We got the idea from seeing this report on Johnson Creek, ID.
